Overview:

During the early phases of the Smolensk operation, the Airborne Corps was called on to attempt a small scale airborne operation. Air reconnaissance had detected a force of about 300 German tanks and vehicles out of fuel in the town of Gorki. Kazankin assigned elements of the 214th Airborne Brigade to fly from Klimoviei and, after bombing by the aircraft, to drop in and burn or otherwise destroy the German equipment.

2024-07-20(D) Dan Best vs Kermit Mullins German winFirst to play and post.
2024-07-20(A) Kermit Mullins vs Dan Best German winVery tough on the Russians. Russians were scattered and 3 of the 4 support weapons landed in bad terrain and were broken. Germans rolled 3's and 2's left and right, which KIA'd many of the Russians that landed in the village area. The Russian bombers only immobilized the Kuebelwagen and nothing else. By Turn 4 it was over as the Germans were in their tanks and the Russians were down to 3 three unbroken half-squads.
